The Jacksonville Jaguars have been decimated with injuries this season and it appears their best player may not be available for Week 13’s game against the Indianapolis Colts in cornerback Jalen Ramsey. The All-Pro missed Wednesday’s practice alongside his comrade Tashaun Gipson, while receiver DJ Chark Jr. was the lone offensive player to sit out.

Chark, on the other hand, would be missing out on a grand opportunity if he isn’t able to play Sunday. Jags executive vice president of football operations, Tom Coughlin, told the local media the Jags would be using the next few weeks to see who were their playmakers on Tuesday, which in all likelihood meant young players like Chark. On top of that, Cody Kessler who had a strong connection with him in the offseason will be starting and one would think he’d be looking to Chark often. For that reason, Chark is a player who can’t get back on the field fast enough.

Defensive lineman Calais Campbell, Lerentee McCray and Marcell Dareus were among the notables on defense to practice on a limited basis Wednesday, while offensive lineman Josh Walker and Jermey Parnell were among the notables who were limited on offense. That’s a good sign for each player at the mid-week point as the Jags will need all the help they can get against a Colts squad that has won their last five games.
